Donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) play a key role in chronic kidney allograft injury. Follicular T helper (Tfh) cells trigger the humoral alloimmune response and promote DSA generation, while T-follicular regulatory (Tfr) cells inhibit antibody production

Current immunosuppressive protocols have significantly decreased graft loss to acute rejection but have had no effect on graft loss to chronic rejection. Recently, attention has been focused on the prevention and management of chronic rejection. Centers must come to a uniform definition of this phenomenon so that studies can be compared. It is believed

Background Kidney transplantation is a life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage renal disease. However, despite progress in surgical techniques and patient management, immunological rejection continues to have a negative impact on graft function

Behaviour of non-donor specific antibodies during rapid re-synthesis of donor specific HLA antibodies after antibody incompatible renal transplantation [PDF]
Background: HLA directed antibodies play an important role in acute and chronic allograft rejection. During viral infection of a patient with HLA antibodies, the HLA antibody levels may rise even though there is no new immunization with antigen ...

The role of IL-33/ST2 signaling in cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is not fully addressed. Here, we investigated the role of IL-33/ST2 signaling in allograft or recipient in CAV respectively using MHC-mismatch murine chronic cardiac allograft ...

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Reveals the Immunological Profiles of Renal Allograft Rejection in Mice
Allograft rejection is a common immunological feature in renal transplantation and is associated with reduced graft survival. A mouse renal allograft rejection model was induced and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data of CD45+ leukocytes in ...

Pathologic analysis of liver transplantation for primary biliary cirrhosis [PDF]
A retrospective histopathologic review of all pathologic specimens from 394 adult liver transplant patients was undertaken with clinical correlation to determine if primary biliary cirrhosis has affected the posttrans‐plant course compared to all other ...

Immune Checkpoints Expression in Chronic Lung Allograft Rejection
Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) is the main cause of poor survival and low quality of life of lung transplanted patients. Several studies have addressed the role of dendritic cells, macrophages, T cells, donor specific as well as anti-HLA ...

Not All Antibodies Are Created Equal: Factors That Influence Antibody Mediated Rejection. [PDF]
Consistent with Dr. Paul Terasaki's "humoral theory of rejection" numerous studies have shown that HLA antibodies can cause acute and chronic antibody mediated rejection (AMR) and decreased graft survival. New evidence also supports a role for antibodies

Chronic allograft rejection: A significant hurdle to transplant success
The state-of-the-art immunosuppression drugs do not ensure indefinite transplant survival, and most transplants are continuously lost to chronic rejection even years posttransplantation.
